Skiing and climate change (2010 surfers 16)

Saturday, January 15th, 2011

1976, the rain that year:

China’s many lush forests are damaged beyond recognition ski in the resort, when no snow is also a large number of groundwater extraction to artificial snow! Wang as a well-known environmentalist, you still feel cool

Wang Shi:

Winter ski away from the city, fresh air, clad in silvery white, a pure and noble of the environment is the best place to recuperate. Skiing is the most intimate of human nature in winter as a way of exercising. Competitive skiing, ski tourism in recent decades is in rapid expansion.
The focus of contemporary skiing in Europe, public participation can be said to achieve the pinnacle of high, followed by the United States, Canada and Japan in Asia. Five continents have carried out the world skiing. Since some of the natural and social reasons, the slow development of China’s skiing, and the limited field of competitive skiing. Mass ski tourism and leisure since the late last century to develop.

I am a 1999 Institute of Heilongjiang Yabuli skiing and never tired. The so-called “cool” has two meanings: First, cold enough! Second, comfortable.

Winter skiing is subject to special geographical environment, many places are not suitable for carrying out the activities, such as winter temperature is too high, not for the mountain slope, etc.. China’s current use of artificial snow in many areas to address the source of the snow really bring quality resources to generic problems. With a large range of artificial snow used ski will become water, electricity large. In general, the artificial snow to keep a medium-sized ski resort, the use of groundwater a year from 50,000 to 100,000 cubic meters, a snow machine energy consumption is about 30 degrees per hour, a ski resort as little has 34 units, more there are four or five snow blowers. Today, many ski resorts throughout the ski season is almost rely on artificial snow. It goes without saying, with astonishing power. In the case of shortage of water resources, promoting energy conservation in today’s large number of artificial snow can be said to “green killer” synonymous.

In fact, skiing is a global manufacturer and not the victims of the deteriorating natural environment, in the main rely on natural snow skiing when there is no excessive consumption of water, electricity and other destruction of the environment. Pharaoh chose skiing (Yabuli Heilongjiang, Jilin Beida Lake) are mainly of natural snow. Of course, with global warming, they also save her ski down the snow every year.

Action to slow global warming, re-man and nature live in harmony pursuit of ideals, rather than the skiing itself is affixed to the destruction of green labels.

National strength, is fundamentally the ability to innovate, the country’s wealth, the system should focus on innovation and expand human, after all, innovation is the fundamental driving force for development. There is, where the direction of innovation? Now it seems, is how to use less or no land, the solar energy into chemical energy. We are afraid of global warming, leaving aside for it is not irreversibly warming (in fact there is no global warming, and the prosperity of mankind would be no today), even if the warming, and sea-level rise, and extreme climate, but in fact the final analysis affect the food supply.

Wang Shi:

Wang felt that you were right, “innovation” are areas of soft power. A country’s comprehensive national strength should include economic, technological, and military strength, shown in the “hard power”, but also to cultural and ideological appeal embodied in the “soft power.” In the information age, soft power is becoming more prominent than ever.

“Earth Hour” show (2010 Camellia bis)

Monday, March 15th, 2010

March 27, Beijing Vanke “city breathing program,” one of the activities of environmental protection – “Earth Hour” campaign began. Activities in Chaoyang Park, with fun garden activities bicycle advocacy community environmental conservation, community owners Vanke evening ceremony to turn off the lights along with other countries to support “Earth Hour” green appeal.

Wang Shi was named the 2010 “Earth Hour” campaign to promote enterprise ambassador, set Wanke Wanke tens of thousands of employees and the leadership of more than 30 cities in the country the power of more than 200 communities, called the community participation, formation of a wide range of sensational effect .

“Earth Hour” is a WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) to address global climate change, an initiative of the hope that individuals, communities, businesses and governments in March of each year the last Saturday 20:30-21:30 turn off the lights for one hour expressed support for action to protect the Earth. Activities for the first time in at 20 o’clock on the March 31, 2007 in Sydney, Australia to start, and soon swept the globe, the world’s largest one action to address climate change.

2009, “Earth Hour” first came to China, the world’s more than 80 countries and regions, more than 3,000 cities involved in this activity, Vanke Group, last year nearly 20,000 employees, more than 100,000 property owners to green items handmade DIY, environmental protection graffiti, lights and other forms of response to a variety of activities to support “Earth Hour” environmental initiatives. As the 2010 “Earth Hour” to promote environmental protection activities of enterprises, Ambassador, Vanke hope that through their own efforts to play a strong appeal Vanke, so that more businesses and citizens to participate in “Earth Hour” campaign.

Vanke adhere to green building and environmental protection in the two-way development of public welfare activities, take concrete actions to put into practice “responsible property” of the mission. 2010, Beijing Vanke Green Theme Series – “Urban breathing Scheme” launched at the same time, Vanke will be in Beijing, Shanghai, the first domestic product integration, unified identity, green management, establish a new model for green residential brands.

Wang, Hello: I read your blog this year to prepare the organization of occupational Vanke to Everest climbers climbers abandoned in the streets to collect the chlorine bottle, they will collect the height of several kilometers in altitude chlorine bottles Most people can step up to the height of it? Thank you.

Wang Shi:

May 29, 1953, New Zealander Hillary and Nepalese Sherpa Tenzing’s Everest summit elevation of 8848.13 meters, thus, countries compete to climb Mount Everest climbers, 90 years into the 20th century, the number of people climbing to 3 per year median. Statistics, the climbers will be more than 600 tons of garbage were dumped climbing routes, including the abandoned tents, sleeping bags, oxygen bottles, batteries, plastic bags and other garbage. Under normal conditions, need 95 years to iron corrosion products, plastic products, about 220 years to decompose, because Everest cold weather, drought, require a longer decomposition time.

As the world’s third pole of the environment has been to Everest and the other bipolar world comparable to the Antarctic and the Arctic. Scientists have asserted, including Mount Everest, including polar environment has been affected by the external environment should not affect the background state of the Earth’s environment background value.

Climbers and environmentalists have been active in the operations to clear Everest of garbage operations, present continuous, and possessed international influence is Japanese mountaineer, Mr. Noguchi.

Vanke, launched in 2010 the operation was clean Everest clean-up in the north slope of Mount Everest at altitudes above 8,000 meters above sea level waste.

China’s urban waste be handled? (2010 surfers 15)

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Mainly in the northern slope of Mount Qomolangma clean-up more than 8,000 meters above sea level a high degree of waste, I heard that Vanke employees working pressure is relatively large. Have to board the 8,000 meters, able to withstand you? estimates, few, right?

Wang Shi:

I think every company has competition motivated employees will have a working pressure to strive behind. But the pressure is not from China Vanke employees climbing the height of 8,000 meters of refuse collection. Everest 8000 m height of the refuse collection is entrusted to do well-trained mountain climbers, is initiated and funded by Vanke. Then, beginning in 2010, Vanke in their own community service initiated refuse, turning waste into wealth of activities, this activity will be a permanent basis. Although communities in urban areas at low altitude, its behavior, garbage collection operations with the Everest of social meaning is the same.

In 2004, China’s urban waste production more than the United States as the world, have occurred around the garbage crisis in the siege, such as Beijing, all landfills will be saturated in 5 years. Wuhan Vanke Wonderland project, due to a garbage dump near the close on time and caused strong protests from residents in the project, becoming the attention of the media event in Wuhan. How to effectively deal with urban waste has become a headache for urban management problems.

Under great pressure, China has a huge incinerator construction projects. Since 2000, the state has issued a series of waste incineration industry to encourage the development of policy, the incineration plant in China 62. “Eleventh Five-Year Plan” period, frequently around waste incineration power project launched in project planning have known 82.

Waste incineration compared to landfill, high efficiency, small footprint, once considered a “fast reduction” in a good way. Japan had built a herd to more than 6,000 waste incinerator, waste incinerators account for the number of the world’s first. Some developed countries follow suit, the waste incineration to a climax.

However, waste incineration has still not been accepted by the people, their shortcomings highlighted in heavier pollution potential cost of costly and complex and wasteful of resources and so on. Reported in the literature, per ton of waste incineration will produce emissions of about 5,000 cubic meters, will leave about half the original volume of ash. Today’s best burning equipment in operation under normal conditions, will release dozens of harmful substances, only by filtration, washing and cleaning all hard adsorption.

In hazardous substances, the most important component is an internationally recognized level of carcinogenic dioxins. Dioxin is known as “the most toxic poisons on earth,” almost does not exist in nature, only through chemical synthesis can produce toxicity is 100 times the potassium cyanide, arsenic 900 times. Dioxin half-life is 14-273 years, will continue to accumulate in the body.

Effective waste disposal practices are already there: through the promotion of recycling and reducing packaging to reduce garbage output. Even if not recycled, is only effective on the classification of waste, incinerator emissions can make the standard easier to achieve. Because the burning of a single composition, the temperature can be more accurately controlled. This is the waste management priorities have been guided by the principle: reduce (reduction), reuse (recycling), recycle (recycling). First one is the reduction at the source, the implementation of waste separation.

According to statistics, 30% of the total municipal solid waste comes from construction waste. As a leader in the housing industry, a comprehensive fine Vanke renovation in 2010 and 2014 to achieve housing industry will be reduced by at least 70% of construction waste.

Residential refuse, Vanke in many small cities to promote garbage classification.

In May this year, the Shanghai World Expo there is a chapter of Vanke Center: dedicated to the world of Chinese municipal solid waste classification to do the best cities: Taipei’s garbage classification.
